May 7, 2018Daniel’s latest project is easily his most mature work. It might also be his best.
-
May 7, 2018Minus is a statement of intent from an artist who has found his voice and shaken off his past.
-
UncutMay 11, 2018The bruising "Madder" betrays the influence of Scott Walker producer Peter Walsh, but there are flickers of respite, notably "The Bomb," which tethers its emotional unravelling to a lovely piano figure. [Jun 2018, p.24]
-
Q MagazineMay 7, 2018Both stunning and original. [Jun 2018, p.106]

May 8, 2018Seven deeply moving songs teetering deliciously on the brink of collapse. It was a long time in the making, but now, at the age of 27, Minus feels alarmingly close to the album Blumberg was always supposed to write.

May 10, 2018Minus boasts a melding of styles and influences, underlining that Blumberg is at his best when he’s most experimental. This is a recalibrating album that sets him up well for even more leftfield musical forays ahead.
-
May 7, 2018Neither a direct, honest pop album nor a truly bizarre, experimental art record, Minus is a meandering mess that tries to say everything and ends up saying very little.
